## About this episode

A performance of LBJ All The Way at the Zack Theater in Austin was interrupted when multiple iPhones triggered loud emergency weather alerts, highlighting the intrusive nature of default government notification settings. The incident underscores the debate over theater signal jammers, which could prevent such disruptions but pose significant safety risks by blocking emergency 911 calls during medical crises. This intersection of historical political theater and modern digital intrusion sets the stage for a broader look at legislative and corporate overreach.

Senator Inhofe and the 114th Congress utilized unanimous consent to bypass the reading of Senate Resolution 173, obscuring the content of the legislation from public view. Meanwhile, Google acquired the time-management app Timeful to integrate automated scheduling into Gmail, and Microsoft announced the end of the Patch Tuesday model at the Ignite 2015 conference. In the private sector, the sudden death of SurveyMonkey CEO David Goldberg in Mexico remains under scrutiny due to discrepancies in official reports regarding head trauma and the lack of a formal autopsy. Additionally, President Obama launched the My Brother's Keeper Alliance as a private non-profit, securing $80 million in corporate commitments from leaders like Joe Echevarria while still in office.

Sir Elton John appeared before a Congressional hearing with Senator Lindsey Graham to advocate for PEPFAR funding, citing the legacy of Ryan White in the fight against AIDS. The program also features a formal knighting ceremony for Scott Lavender and Alexander Sukhovy, alongside a humorous attempt to subconsciously program listeners to shout the show's website upon hearing the phrase In the morning.

NOAA reports that global carbon dioxide concentrations reached a two-million-year high in March 2015.
